Re: ODBC connection to Oracle DB problem...

Personally, I've banged my head against the wall with every driver out there for Oracle. But I am having the best luck using Microsoft's. There is a newsgroup for beta oracle ODBC stuff (microsoft.public.odbc.beta.oracle), and the latest released version from MS does everything great except external authentication.
